    They should refurbish them.

    Why not? Just because they haven’t been yet? Historical significance? Blah, blah blah. I’m sure the people who made them would want it. And I bet it would increase tourism. We take this shit way too seriously.

      Similarly, I would like to see the Coliseum rebuilt and used as a football stadium.

        I’m for it, but I think it would be very expensive to get it up to code.

        The Pyramids are just piles of rocks, with no modern purpose.

        Really, we should use these things for their intended purpose, if possible. And, keep them in good condition. We do it with other historic buildings.

      I would object because of the bureaucracy. It would cost less to make a new one. Then you could do both. And in 5000 years we might get new alien conspiracies about why we have two sets of pyramids in two different time periods.

          i think it’d be funny if we just built one single new pyramid.
          4000 years of no pyramids, one more pops up, then nothing for another 10’000 years.
